tirsden[dead image link] Tirsden of Diablo II, USWEST server, is gone. Well, I didn't flat-out delete her, I'm going to let her character expire so nobody takes her name (which it will in 90 days, one reason why I finally decided to quit). I gave all her stuff away this morning. It was time.
Tirsden was actually a remake of my old main character, EyeGotGems (originally a gem-holding mule! lol) who I deleted because at that time it was impossible to change account passwords and my ex knew it. I handed all my old char's stuff to Tirsden on a new account, and I proceded to delete a Matriarch Amazon, leaving that account behind forever. Tirsden passed up the old character in level and added a few choice things to her gear, but the repetiveness of the game, the 90-day character limit (unless you played them for two hours before they expired), and the horrible update patches screwing up the game finally got to me. Yup. It was time.
abbreviations used in the following gear list:
FR = Fire Resist
CR = Cold Resist
LR = Lightning Resist
PR = Poison Resist
ATK = Attack Rating
DMG = damage
DEF = defense
DUR = durability
STR = strength
DEX = dexterity
VIT = vitality
ENG = energy
LR = light radius
CHAR = character
LVL = level
XP = experience
I'm leaving out all the required level and required stat garbage. Plus I'm not going to bother with trying to figure out what I put in socketed items. I used a lot of Um runes for the resists, and Nef runes in bows for knockback. The changes in text color will be familiar to D2 gamers, and don't matter to non-fans, other than the gold titled items are rare, yellow ones are "imbued" through a quest or otherwise more special than the average weapon, and green items are part of one of the many matched sets in the game. Some of this stuff I had for years before some very happy people were quite willing to help me part with it today. Rock on, peeps. Rock on.
